I already made my vacation leave for the holy week in time for our US trip. Heheheh =) I might be back my 2nd week of May. If ever. Or something. Loong weekends are really amazing! I looove looove long weekends. Must plan vacations already. I also hope to visit my nephew and cousin in Canada by December. Woooot! Must.Save.Now.

No more expensive dinners for us. Booo. But it’s ok. It’s for a good cause anyway. Hehehehe. Except for my birthday and this coming May…oh oh! if ever, J and I will be celebrating our 4th year in the US! ooohh Goodie! =) I am really excited! First, I must file that extension.

Back to work!

TOodles! Ciao Bella! =)

This would be our 4th Christmas together. I just feel blessed and overly thankful to have someone to share this holiday season with.  I am just thankful to the many blessings He has given us this year…the hardship we both have to face when J left for Minnesota earlier this year, the re connecting after a long absence and being together once again (no we didn’t break up). It just feels wonderful to share moments like this with someone who knows you inside out.

I also feel wonderful that my family had the chance to eat as a whole last weekend. We haven’t had that luxury of time to sit down and share a meal together since we are all busy with our own business. I used to be weirded out by friends who tell me way back that they don’t  eat as a family during lunch or dinner even on weekends. We never had that. We made it a point that we would all eat together as a family. But maybe, the bigger house we moved into made that happen. We rarely had the chance to have dinner nor talk about things like we used to. I miss those moments. Same as last year when my sister went to the US for a while, Christmas 2007 was the most boring holiday season ever. I felt sad and down and I just kept on wishing that we would be complete once more and I am looking forward to this year’s Christmas dinner.

Been really trying to keep fit the past days without spending anything. I will maximize my room’s space for crunches, weight lifting and jogging outdoors every morning and evening. I just need to borrow my sister’s ipod case so that I could carry my ipod around everytime I jog. I am pretty excited also for this break to take pictures and cleaning up my room. I need to organize my closet! Waah!

I might not be able to post as much to give time to the other things I need to attend to.

Have a wonderful holiday season yup ahead everyone! :)
